Stop-frame Animation

Currently myself and members of my team are in the process of creating a stop-frame animation, before beginning this process we had to collectively come up with ideas which we think would be appropriate for the project. Meanwhile we also did further research to review what ideas are already out in the media, and perhaps what we could make or do differently. The outcome will involve making a  physical object appear to move on its own; in order to do this we had to take a variety of camera shots which we will then edit on Adobe Photoshop. 

I thought that this stop-frame animation video uploaded on Youtube was inspiring, however I can image it took a lot of time and patience.  Youtube Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOMFod_Qnhg

Subsequently we are now in the process of putting the images together using Adobe Photoshop, to form a stop-frame animation, furthermore we will also use the software to perhaps change the lighting, positioning or contrast of the images if necessary.
